Non-linear exponential decay models were used to estimate the average decay rates of the antibody CC-BY-ND 4.0 International license It is made available under a is the author/funder, who has granted medRxiv a license to display the preprint in perpetuity. In our cohort, we found that two healthcare workers might have been misdiagnosed with 236 SARS, as the IgG antibodies against both the whole virus and N199 antigen was persistently 237 lower than the cutoff value, for these two patients. Collectively, based on our results, we can infer that the IgG against SARS-CoV can persist at CC-BY-ND 4.0 International license It is made available under a is the author/funder, who has granted medRxiv a license to display the preprint in perpetuity. ./cache/cord-307932-7t41wvw3.txt ./txt/cord-307932-7t41wvw3.txt
